These are simply a subset of the tidal data routinely collected by NOAA's National Ocean Service (NOS) at long-term tide gauge stations, useful in the other studies archived in the Data Zoo.

The Data Zoo

The Center for Coastal Studies (CCS) of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego, has developed an on-line database of physical oceanographic data organized by experiment, and referred to as the 'Data Zoo.' The animals in this 'zoo' are the individual data sets, one of which is described above. The zoo is funded by the Mineral Management Service, Bureau of Land Management, Department of the Interior.

If you intend to use these data in a published document, you are asked to cite the source. If you plan to use these data in your research please notify CCS of your intentions by contacting the 'zookeeper' at zookeeper@coast.ucsd.edu.
